Although
it is termed a bastard sword, the German bastard sword is actually more
of a great sword by both its size and its weight. It is a model dated
from the 16th century. Being a sword made in the time of renaissance, it features a complex hilt to stop the attack
coming along the side of the blade, protecting the wielder's hand.
Moreover, it has a big pommel to match the real sword's pommel size.
European sword of this length can be used in binding where the forte of
the blade could push the opponent's blade out of the way while the tip
of the sword performs the attack.

Due to the rigidity of the blade, it is mandatory
that the participants would wear padded armor or gambeson to avoid
injuries. Another option is to build the sword with double padding so
that it could be used without additional armor.

A sword
with double padding is shown below along with a normal padded one.
